OMG!!!!!!..how can kripa do this to angad...he stood by her side alwayzz...how could she just refuse him????....

its difficult 4 her but its more heartbreaking for angad....he did so much for her....he helped her to b independent...nd now when she is free from her agony she doesnt want to marry angad..!!!!!...how ruthless!!!!!!!

KRIPA...angad is not lyk prithvi...cant she understand this...!!!!

if she was so adamant she couldve atleast accepted the ring..they could b engaged ATLEAST.....

i feel soooooooooooooo bad for angad...

he is the sweetest FF angad ive ever read....

(sigh)

well di......after long tym im here....hope u didnt 4get me..???...

i almost got a heart attack when i saw the leap....

but really u made kripa lyk a villain.......plzzzz make her the good girl again...

nd congoooo 4 the new thread....

thanks cutey! why do we treat a woman who wants her own individuality as a villain??? That's unfair to her...she loves angad and is commited to him. she just needed time before jumping into marriage. Yes, angad has done a lot for her. In fact, her rebellion is a result of his guidance to her- he should have understood her better than anyone else but in the end, he failed to understand her yes, kripa could have been gentle in her rejection of his proposal....both made mistakes and are now paying 4 it. Don't call kripa a villain Our society still wants to see women as sacrificing and selfless sati savitri types

oh..!!!!now i feel lyk a villain di.......ur ryt...actually i was soooooooo angry that tym...

both r ryt nd both r wrong...

but still kripa could b a lil gentle........

hope they will reunite soooooonnnn.....can't wait...

[/QUOTE]

yes, she could have said it differently but u know in reality, i just couldn't write a story where the girl right after a divorce, would jump into a marriage, suhaag raat and honeymoon. It's like after a funeral, one starts celebrating right away. that's the main reason i had to bring in this twist

Annu..IF-Rockerz

I think in this whole debate, the reader who
thinks kripa is wrong won't consider Kripa to be right at any stage

The 2 year time period that u talked about, this all happens
in arranged proposals, where the girl does not know her partner and that's why
it's not easy for her to plunge into another marriage so soon, but here Kriap
knows angad and that's why to get married is not a risk for her

and btw, who said that kripa should have gone to mandar to get
married with angad , she should have said to get engaged, but she did not say
that.... after the confession kripa never showed that she is not ready to get
married at once after the divorce....where they shared so much in one year, they
should have also discussed this matter too.

btw, which freedom is kripa talking about, what she
wanted to do and that made her fear that she would be unable to do with angad?
she knows that in her every decision, she would get the support of him. Kripa ka khud se kehna, it was my choice, i
can't blame anyone, but myself.. ye toh repentance haina

angad bach gaya, that he is not aware of kripa's
whereabouts, but if she were in mumbai then there would be a fault of angad too.

na na, aap phir nahi samjhe hamari bat ko, i didnt say that
to make feel prithvi bad AK do not get married. i said it would be odd for them
to live TOGATHER in sharma's house. jaise hi dulha-dulhan Sharma house mein
aaye, prithvi ko back door se khisak lena chahiye'issi mein, uski izzat hai.

from my side this song to egoistic angad-kripa its.. Hum
Tum by vital signs I hope u would
like it

"Dad….I have accepted the advance from the organizers. You
have to convince Angad to perform in Nainital." Prithvi sounded frustrated.

"Prithvi, you know Angad well. If that boy doesn't want to
do something, no one can convince him!" Suryabhan shrugged his shoulders.

"Dad….it will be a packed show. Nainital loves Angad….he is
their blue eyed boy. Main jaanta hoon ki aap hi Angad ko convince kar sakte
hain. You know we need this cash desperately. Our telecom business is not what
it used to be. Angad's music sales and his concerts are imperative to keep our
company afloat."

"Suryabhan," she sighed, "Angad is not interested in any
other girl…..you will never understand…..any ways…kitne dino ki packing karni
hai?"

"Just two nights," Suryabhan walked into the bathroom to
change for the night while his wife packed his bags. Gayatri pondered over
Suryabhan's statement. Yes, Kripa had walked out of their lives, but why did
she not keep any contact with them? Was her relationship to them limited to
Prithvi only? Why did she break Angad's heart? Angad had never spoken about
what had happened in Nainital between them. Through Aradhana, Gayatri was aware
that Kripa was alive, well and happy somewhere in the Nainital area. Lately, even
Aradhana had stopped calling her. At times, Gayatri had wondered if she should
try and locate Kripa herself- perhaps there was more than met the eye. She knew
Kripa's feelings were genuine for Angad, then why the separation?

Gayatri picked her phone and after ages, dialed a familiar
number, "Hello Aradhana?"

……………………………………………………………………………….

AT ASHIRWAAD ORPHANAGE:

"Kripa! I have great news for our kids," Mrs Saxena,
Nishant's bua and director of the place, barged into Kripa's office, all
excited next morning.

"Kya hua ma'am?" Kripa stood up.

"The mayor of Nainital has donated 150 tickets for our
center for this evening's show."

Kripa's face lit up at the news, "really?" As she realized
the repercussions of her excitement, the color faded, "lekin ma'am….aap log
jaaiye…someone needs to stay back here…after all some kids can't go for the
concert."

Kripa relented, albeit anxious and eager to see him perform
live once again. "I am sure, he will not see me in that large crowd…I can't
wait to see him again….2 saal…it's been two years since I saw him." Her heart
fluttered at the thought, "door se hi sahi, usey ek baar dekh tho paaungi."

…………………………………………………………………………………….

OUTSIDE THE ARENA:

There was a familiar stampede like ambience outside the
auditorium. Kripa smiled nostalgically as she relived the moments from two
years ago- her excitement at surprising him, the scalpers, the young crazy women,
their celebration after the concert…and then….that fateful night that changed
their relationship forever. From a passionate union of souls and bodies to a
heart wrenching separation, all within a span of few hours.

"KRIPA!" Mrs Saxena hollered at her as they lined all the
kids outside the auditorium, "bachchon….apne group ke saath hi rehna….Kripa
didi ka haath pakdo Rimjhim!" She ordered a young girl, who stood mesmerized
staring at Angad's giant poster outside the arena.

As Kripa looked around, she was pleasantly surprised to see
that the last two years had also changed Angad's fan base- not only were there
hordes of young women around, but a lot of families, elderly and kids stood
impatiently outside the doors. Angad's voice had definitely won the hearts of
all age groups; perhaps his whole hearted acceptance by the Sharmas played a
big role in his success. She was happy for him and silently wished him the best
of luck in his endeavors.

……………………………………………………………….

THE CONCERT:

Ashirwaad kids and their care takers were assigned a special
section, not too far from the stage. Before the show started, Kripa was
thankful when the lights were dimmed. It would be too awkward, if he spotted
her in the crowd. Yes, she had promised to surprise him at his concerts, but
unfortunately, she had not kept up with her promise till today. It was best to
stay oblivious.

Two years ago, he was a rising star, but the moment he
arrived on the stage, there was no doubt that he was no longer an aspiring
newcomer- he was THE STAR, THE STAGE, THE CONCERT and THE NIGHT. Kripa was
awestruck by how much more handsome and striking he looked two years after his
first concert. The familiar boyish looks had been replaced by a rugged and
chiseled masculine persona.

"HELLO NAINITAL!" Angad's voice drowned the mad screams of
the crowd, "JAISA AAP SAB JAANTE HAIN, NAINITAL SE MERA BAHUT PURANA RISHTA
HAI. THIS CITY HAS GIVEN ME EVERYTHING I HAVE AND I AM IN LIFE. YEH SHEHER MERI
PEHCHAN HAI. IT'S GIVEN ME MY MOST CHERISHED MEMORIES AND MOST HEARTBREAKING ONES ALSO."

Kripa held her breath at his last statement; averted her
eyes from the stage, biting her lips to hide her tears. She looked up at the
giant flat screen monitor and saw the pain in his eyes as he uttered, 'HEARTBREAKING ONES ALSO.' She wondered if he had moved on in life;
there was perhaps another woman in his life - he must be married by now- at
least that's what she expected.

Did she still hold a special place in his heart?

"LEKIN AAP SAB KA PYAAR HAI JO MUJHEY AAJ PHIR YAHAN LE AAYA
HAI. I WOULD LIKE TO DEDICATE THIS SONG TO ALL MY MEMORIES LINKED TO THIS
WONDERFUL CITY…HERE YOU GO."

Yes, she had broken his heart the other night, but since
then, had paid penance for rejecting his heartfelt proposal- she was equally broken and discontent after she
had been asked to leave him and his life forever…..

Har saans meri naam tere
rab mujhko kaza de

Rab Na karein ke yeh zindagi
Kabhi kisi ko daga de

Kisiko rulaye na dil ki laagi
Maula sab ko dua de

hmmm ummm hmmm ummm
o hooo hoo hoo
hmmm ummm hmmm ummm
o hooo hoo hoo

hmmm ummm hmmm ummm
o hooo hoo hoo
hmmm ummm hmmm ummm
o hooo hoo hoo

After a drink of water and washing her face, she walked out
of the restroom, ready to face the rest of the concert with a more valiant
effort on her part- at least for the sake of the kids.

As she walked past the pillars in the lobby, she overheard a
familiar voice. She hid behind a pillar as she recognized Suryabhan's voice. He
was talking to someone on the phone.

"Haan Tiwari saheb….aapka hukum sar aankhon par sir…….Angad
aapki party mein kal zaroor perform karega….aakhir aapki beti ki sagai ka
sawaal hai….jee haan…advance mere account mein deposit kar dee jiye…..I will
have Prithvi contact you with the details…..yes sir, Angad and I will be there
at 10 in the morning….thank you sir….you have made our Nainital trip more
worthwhile sir….Take care!" With a triumphant look on his face, Suryabhan hung
up the call and walked back to the auditorium.

Kripa shuffled behind the pillar awkwardly, a bit disturbed
by the conversation she had just heard.

"I know, it's none of my business, but why do I feel that
Angad's music is being showcased more for their business than his own career?"
She walked back hesitantly, Suryabhan's words still ringing in her head. After
her accidental meeting with Suryabhan a year ago, she had pledged that the
Sharmas and their lives were of no significance to her.

FLASH BACK:

KRIPA (FIRST PERSON)

Did I ever go back to Mumbai?

Yes, I did. One year
after Angad and I parted ways, I went back to Mumbai.

Wahan jo hua, wo ab
main aapko bataati hoon.

A year had gone by
since Angad and I had separated. Even though I was happy and satisfied with my
life and career, a part of me felt incomplete and restless without Angad. I
realized the folly of my rejection of his proposal. Yes, I was not ready for
marriage, but Angad was not Prithvi. Why had I transferred my fears of marriage
to a relationship which was based purely on honesty, truth, faith and love?

Angad had given me
both- love and trust in our relationship, then why could I not agree to his
wish of us getting married? We were both committed and could not fathom a life
without each other, so why all the fuss about not getting married? If that's
what he wanted, I was ready to wear the tag of a married woman again- it didn't
matter whether I was Kripa Gupta or Kripa Khanna- I belonged to him and that
was the truth.

With hopes and dreams
in my eyes, I went back to Mumbai. I was ready to apologize, even propose to
him in a role reversal of sorts.

"Angad has moved on,
and so have we. Ab hamara tumse koi rishta nahin hai. The divorce happened a
year ago. We don't want to create any problems with our past relationships and
I hope you understand what that means."

"Lekin daddy…I am sorry Mr. Sharma….Angad and I love each
other and want to marry each other. I just needed some time after the divorce
to sort out my feelings."

"Mr. SHARMA! You are being unfair here." I had tears in my
eyes, "Angad and I love each other."

"Please use the past tense here Ms Kripa Gupta! Angad loved
you, or so he thought he did. Now he is happy with us, his real family…don't
ruin our lives again. Prithvi and Angad are like buddies now….tumhare aane se
wo pyaar aur bhai chaara jaa sakta hai dono mein…you understand what I am
saying? Don't be selfish in love….learn
to give and let go! For once, let Angad
be happy in his life! STAY AWAY FROM ALL THE SHARMAS! Paise chaahiye tho
mil jaayenge!"

I couldn't believe what I had just heard. Just a year ago,
this man claimed to be my father-figure; I was appalled and insulted to the
core. Like son…like father. I ran as fast as I could, tears of anger and pain
rolling down my eyes as I caught the first train back to Nainital.

PRESENT:

FOR ONCE, LET ANGAD BE
HAPPY IN HIS LIFE…

FOR ONCE, LET ANGAD BE
HAPPY IN HIS LIFE…

FOR ONCE, LET ANGAD BE
HAPPY IN HIS LIFE….

As Kripa sat back in her seat, Suryabhan's words rang clear
in her head. She had returned to Nainital without meeting anyone else. If the
divorce had snapped her relationship with her ex husband, her meeting with
Suryabhan had brought closure to all her past relationships. Initially, it had
felt strange- the favorite daughter-in-law had become the outsider; the trouble
maker, the home breaker, the snag between the brothers. It was ironical, that
the victim had become the culprit. Her self respect tainted, she had no desire
to stay back in Mumbai after that incident. From the looks of it, the media
reports and television coverage always showed the Sharmas as one big happy
family. Angad was always accompanied by his father, and or brothers. Kripa did
not have the heart to tilt that balance away from Angad's life. She stayed away
from him, just collected all his music and stored all magazine articles about
him. There had been no mention of his marriage or engagement in the papers, but
he was a musician, not a film star- people cared about his music more than his
personal life- perhaps that's why there was never any mention of a woman in his
life.

Suryabhan's phone call with Mr. Tiwari made her wonder if all was really well at the Sharma
household? Was Angad really happy there?

Kripa and the Ashirwaad crowd thoroughly enjoyed the rest of
the concert. Like him, even Angad's voice had become richer and more arresting,
each note more heart piercing and alluring than the previous. He was a
versatile singer and kept the audience engaged with fast, slow, romantic and
fun filled numbers. Lost in his voice, Kripa hugged Rimjhim sitting next to
her, shut her eyes and transcended into a dream like state, hand in hand with
Angad.

"Sorry dad…that's between you and him. I 'd rather perform
for some genuine smiles than those fake ones at people like Tiwaris….good night
dad…I am tired…have to go to bed early." Angad placed his bag on his shoulders
and walked out of the auditorium, leaving an aghast Suryabhan behind. He knew,
this time, no amount of emotional blackmail would work in his favor. Angad was
a stubborn man when it came to things like this.

"Tiwari…sorry yaar…Angad just came down with the Flu…"
Suryabhan called his friend and apologized.

A part of her felt relieved, "Angad, it's good to know that
you are still the same….koi tumhare talent ka be wajah faayda nahin utha raha
hai."

She took a deep breath and composed herself, "I can do it…of
course I can do it….just be yourself Kripa….just be a professional…..he is just
another celebrity visiting our premises….just another visitor."
